Greetings!

Happy first day of February!  As I sit here in the greenhouse typing, my eyes are squinting through the beautiful sunshine filling the whole place!  What a gorgeous day - again.  Today marks the first annual Random Acts of Kindness Day in St. Thomas - a day to go out and be kind to others for no reason.  Maybe you do this everyday, or maybe you need today to 'turn over a new leaf'... whatever the reason, enjoy your day, soak up the sun and try to make someone smile :-)

Wednesday, February 1st is St. Thomas's first ever

There are so many colourful, bright and cheery flowers available at this time of year - why not surprise someone with a cute pot of daffodils ($3.99) or a mini violet ($1.99).
Better yet - take them out for a breath of fresh tropical air to the greenhouse, where it is dry, warm and sunny everyday!  Family Flowers is wheelchair and walker accessible too.
Do something nice for someone this week + share your inspirational story here .
